Vin Scully Biography

Vin Scully was born November 29, 1927 and is an American
sportscaster, known primarily as the play-by-play voice of the Brooklyn and ++Los
Angeles Dodgers++ baseball team on Prime Ticket, KCAL-TV and KABC radio. His 62
seasons with the Dodgers (1950–present) is the longest of any broadcaster with
a single club in professional sports history, and he is second by a year to
only Tommy Lasorda in terms of length of years with the Dodgers organization in
any capacity.

Scully received the Ford Frick Award from the Baseball Hall of Fame in 1982,
and was honored with a Life Achievement Emmy Award for sportscasting and
induction into the National Radio Hall of Fame in 1995. The National
Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association has named Scully as National
Sportscaster of the Year three times (1965, 1978, 1982) and California
Sportscaster of the Year 29 times, and inducted him into its Hall of Fame in
1991. He was the 1992 Hall of Fame inductee of the American Sportscasters
Association (ASA), and was named both Sportscaster of the Century by the ASA
(2000) and top sportscaster of all-time on its Top 50 list (2009). Scully has a
star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6675 Hollywood Blvd. Since 2001 the press
box at Dodger Stadium has been named for Scully, and a street near the team's
former Dodgertown spring training facility in Vero Beach, Florida was named
"Vin Scully Way".
